Today, WWE celebrates 10 years of Smackdown with a special episode especially for WWE Smackdown fans worldwide. A pillar for the success of Smackdown is definitely no other that Viva La Raza, Eddie Guerrero. But last November 2005, the Mexican wrestler was found dead inside his hotel. The authorities who rushed to the scene identified Eddie Guerrero dead with a toothbrush still on his mouth. Just days before Eddie Guerrero died, he was supposed to have a title match, and his death really changed Smackdown forever.

Rumors say that Eddie Guerrero may have died from drug overdose, perhaps steroids which is a rampant problem for any wrestling brand. Anyway, with Eddie Guerrero death, Smackdown has reached new heights and more Mexican superstars emerged then after.
